The Preferred Land Use Scenario for the Northeast Corridor is the result of scenario development, evaluation, and selection process. Population and employment growth is distributed along the corridor to the expected trend (2040) growth. Downtown remains a regional center for residential and employment activities. Preferred Scenario (PS) Socioeconomic Data Summary Projected Population: 262,000 (2040) to 307,000 (PS) An increase of 44,500 in popula- tion or 16% higher than in 2040 Projected Employment: 158,000 (2040) to 188,000 (PS) An increase of 30,000 in employ- ment or 18% higher than in 2040 Projected 2040 and Preferred Scenario Average Weekday Corridor Boardings : 11,400 —15,500 36 % increase in total boardings with Preferred Land Use Scenario Northeast Corridor Station Areas The limits of the Northeast Corridor are from Downtown Miami to the City of Aventura along the existing FEC railway for an approximate length of 14.5 miles. The municipalities within the corridor are Miami, EI Portal, Miami Shores, Biscayne Park, North Miami, North Miami Beach, and Aventura. The Project Development and Environmental (PD&E) study has so far identified the transit mode (commuter rail), alignment (existing FEC railroad) and preliminary station locations. However, the PD&E study is currently on hold until negotiations with FEC Railway for securing track access are complete along with identifying funding sources for operations and maintenance. This project would be the southernmost part of the planned Tri -Rail Coastal Link commuter service. The proposed stations that are the basis of the population, employment and ridership projections shown here are: *Aventura ♦ NE 79 St./EI Portal ♦ Wynwood/Edgewater ♦ North Miami Beach ♦ Midtown/Design ♦ Downtown Miami ♦ North Miami District PREFERRED TECHNOLOGY WHAT IS COMMUTER RAIL? muter Rail (e.g. Tri -Rail) often runs on rail lines also used by freight and long distance enger service (CSX, FEC). Compared to Heavy Rail (eg. Metrorail) it involves longer ce lines and less frequent service. It moves passengers between communities rather within them.
